Leeden Tor submitted by Brian Byng on 7th Feb 2002. Leeden Tor - Cairn at upper end SX 5653 7147.

Cut Hill Stone Row submitted by Andy B on 10th Apr 2010. Granite Stone Row
Here is the roof of Dartmoor, from the top you can see right all across Dartmoor. In the picture is a piece of granite probably Megalithic in age and is in a series of stones running along the top of this hill. This row is unique within Dartmoor as it the only one with equal spacing within the row and above 600m, 100m above any other row in Dartmoor. The peat has washed away from around the stone but not from underneath, meaning the granite sticks out above the ground.

Cantrell submitted by Brian Byng on 7th Feb 2002. Cantrell.
This double stone row @ SX 6570 5717 has a cairn at the upper end
which is on the skyline when viewed from the lower end of the row. The ruined cairn is 8m
diameter & has a single slab at the centre in a hollow. Perhaps the remains of a burial kist. The row is 48m long with an azimuth of 45 degrees.
Strangely this row is aligned diagonally across the slope of the hill. It does not follow the natural contour of the downhill slope. The horizon height of the
cairn from the bot...

Drizzlecombe W row submitted by Anne T on 15th Jul 2019. In trying to identify this elusive row, Sandy asked members of the group to stand on stones they thought might be part of the stone row. From foreground to background: Janet Daynes, Dave Parks (Prehistoric Dartmoor Walks), Gordon Fisher (just off to the right) and Sandy G. Sandy G is walking down the line of stones. He is planning a return trip later in the year to take a closer look.

Burford Down Stone Row submitted by Tom_Bullock on 9th Jul 2002. The Burford Down stone row, one of the finest in
Dartmoor, shows evidence of recent damage by whatever farmer is running
huge tractors across the fields. S(he) has been driving right through
the rows (perpendicular to them) along several tracks. I saw evidence of
at least 3 stones that had been dislodged and pushed aside by the wheels
of the tractor. I don't know if there is a procedure for reporting such
damage, or even if the farmer is liable for such damage. I have never, in my 12 year...
